it's surprising how many large projects rely on vigilance rather than
typechecking.
personally, if i have to cunningly outwit a c compiler, i'd rather it be something
the compiler can't actually do itself.
fwiw, cpython didn't have these problems, though it did expect more
up-to-date posix compliance.
speaking of which....
if anyone has an itch to contribute, and doesn't mind getting dirty,
it sure would be nice to bring APE in line with POSIX.1-2008.
contact me offline if interested.
